		Chicago has been divided many ways: from the fixed 77 "community areas" originally devised during the 1920s and, only slightly updated, still used as the basic official segmentation map for Chicago, to the 50 political wards used in council and alderperson elections, the boundaries of which change to meet the character of their constituencies.
